	'''Sammy McCarthy''' was known as amateur boxing's 'golden boy' losing only seven of about ninety unpaid contests and representing England four times. He remains one of the finest boxers never to win an [[ABA]] title.

	McCarthy was only 19 when he was persuaded to turn professional and was voted the best British-born boxer of 1951 by ''Boxing News''. In 1954 McCarthy challenged for the European featherweight championship--losing to Jean Sneyers of Belgium. However later that year he became British featherweight champion by beating Ronnie Clayton.
